Localization, from the observed far-field, of radiating centers in a 2D-scene

In this paper, a method to pinpoint locations of secondary scattering off a platform from antenna radiation data in a 2D-scene is considered. As the platform is assimilated to a collection of radiating centers, the received field in far-field zone is modelized. A solution to pinpoint the location of these centers is then applied at a constant frequency and over pi radians observation. This method, based on a substitution with estimated angles and a FFT, yields an image of the platform by measuring the diffracted field.
